I'm glad they keep tipping off the deep state to how much of a threat they are. Picking a fight with the FBI... let me know how that works out.

One thing I hate is that a lot of conservative people I know are generally very kind and loving people but then they go nutzo for their lunatic glorious leader. And nothing seems to make them see the truth about their false messiah

I know a lady that smokes weed, accepts gays, minorities, and trans people, and disavows the Jan 6th coup, and currently has a son incarcerated for smoking weed, huge Trump fan freedom lover. What's up with these Liberals who keep voting Republican? The DNC bends over backward to align perfectly with a Liberal who dislikes welfare programs. It doesn't work.

Ughhhhhh the one that isn't assaulting Democracy as far as I know...?

$950,000,000 would only buy about 38 million 8-piece chicken meals, assuming $25 each. That's not going to make a very big dent in world hunger at all, and it's not even that many chickens (Costco sells 100 million rotisserie chickens every year).

Man that better be some good chicken for $25

But yeah half that number and your point still stands.

You know what convinced me though, I went online and I looked for evidence that god was real, and I did that for a week. If he's real, then surely there's evidence of at least one of his miracles, right? It would be historically inaccurate if there wasn't.

To be an atheist practically requires arrogance.

Imagine an amoeba saying, with 100% confidence, "Yep, there's no such thing as a blue whale!"

How would it know that? How COULD it know that? How would it ever approach the concept?

Now take the concept, apply it to humans, God, and the near-imfinite expanse of the universe.

My point.

If you don't adhere to empirical evidence you're going to be a burden on society because of how vulnerable you make yourself to being manipulated.

So do me a favor and just think about how every time you touch yourself your soul is dead and can't be brought back to life until you go to a church and tell the old man you masturbated. I'm assuming you didn't, so that means you're going to hell. Great. I just got you to go to church every week, because you are manipulatable.

And btw the sin is worse if you're aware you are committing the sin. Now that I've told you this, you have no excuse.

I mean people buy off talk show hosts, teach them that Jesus hated welfare.

Ok, guess it's 2012 forever, I'm ok with that.

Which one is the real one? Yours, right? Do you talk to him in your head? Is he in the room with us right now? Please tell me the rules of getting in and out of the perpetual orgasm and avoiding the forever bad drug trip.

You all got lucky it was me and not fucking Elon Musk, whose sole desire is to enslave people on Mars.

I would lay low and make small changes here and there. You take too much power and people would just be terrified, and what's the point in that? Plus, I would probably fuck it up. Fascist governments are nothing but one guy that thinks he's smarter than a Democracy. One bad take or one bad day and the country collapses. I'd be like that guy from Sri Lanka that banned non-organic fertilizers and caused a total collapse of the country because I think I know shit about farming.

You know it's funny what happens when they go on their own social media echo chamber for 6 months. But yeah, there's no going back. Let's just get it over with, let them go off the deep end. When shit hits the fan I want the FBI on our side.

This happened like 8 miles away from where I live. I laughed when I saw "from a corn field", because Ohio.

I am extremely happy that they decided to get on the wrong side of the FBI. I am very happy that he was the only one to die.

Basically seeing the deep state realize that Fascist terrorism is currently our biggest threat. Maybe not the Antifa kids kicking over trash cans. I think even Zues would have to admit that at this point.

They condone terrorism on a daily basis and I'm very very happy the FBI is probably not going to help them with that. Really.

No I'm okay

Just trying to give you some good tips. You don't have to upload it to imgur anymore either, you can just paste it in the text box. I suggested they just allow literally any image imgedding from any site, but they couldn't figure that out I guess. They asked "which websites should we support?" and I was like "all of them??"

Same with Discord

But I'll check out the Stardew mods if they are really good. Did you scour and shop around for all of them or get a mod pack? I won't mod minecraft unless it's a mod pack, because the base game is just so boring and the mod pack alters the gameplay.

his opponent was likely always going to be desantis, so

Yeah.. so now he's probably upset that it will definitely be desantis. I'm making a joke about the story that just broke about the DNC funding far right Republicans so they stand a chance at winning.

And now desantis looks reasonable next to Trump, that guy is a nightmare for trans people.

Biden apparently wasn't made aware of the FBI raid.

Yeah I think we all assumed that, his voter base would be made too happy, and he's probably going to go up in polls now, both of those things are strict anti-DNC policies.

If anything Biden is probably upset that his opponent will be slightly less insane.

OP must be saying literally anything about feminism.

I mean he's clearly actively going to continue to subvert democracy for the rest of his life, and someone else will replace him until we fall into a Fascist government.

Late stage Capitalism historically chooses Socialism or Fascism. I think it's pretty clear that people are getting more radical.

Basically threatening to shut down the fbi and leave us with no federal law enforcement. This is insane. Something has to be done about the republican threat to this nation.

Yes, they are just straight-up authoritarians clowns these days, and anything that can be done to keep them out of power is so important. They don't even have any policies they want, they are just full anti-left conspiracy 24/7.

Would be great if Democrats stopped propping and funding the worst of the worst.

Ok so an FBI raid approved by the director of the FBI he appointed to retrieve classified documents he took too long to return and somehow it's the radical left's fault.

He can't stay out of the news for 3 seconds.

Yeah it's almost like if you attempt a coup the deep state is going to target you.

So after actually reading the article (I should have read it before posting tbh) it looks like the officers will get to the school, break the safety mechanisms, and then the police get the ar-15. It won't be the school staff that has the gun.

So yeah whatever the implications of that are, that's what it is. I guess for whatever reason they can't just carry one in their car, or if they can they felt like that would slow them down.

Yeah people just like him because he is (or was) a damn cute pirate in a fictional movie.

But he's a celebrity actor that no one actually knows who's probably high on 5 different drugs at all times. I don't think he's aware of his actions at least half the time.

Whether any of those fears are legitimate or not, they're the kinds of things people think of when they think about self-driving cars. Which is why most polls tend to suggest people at the moment are more into the idea of a self-driving car than they are willing to ever actually ride in one.

Regardless I think public transportation is the only way solve this fundamental problem, so I would not consider self driving cars to be very impressive in general

Hey there Einstein. It was a misfire by Hamas that killed those children. Maybe source your info before regurgitating antisemitic propaganda that was debunked several hours ago.

https://www.timesofisrael.com/israel-says-gaza-terrorists-failed-rocket-launch-kills-several-palestinian-children/

Somehow I don't trust your single source "founded by a billionaire hedge fund manager" thetimesofisreal over most of independent media, the UN, and human rights groups reporting on war crimes and occupation allegedly committed by Isreal.

But we have as a country been doing a pretty effective job smearing the conversation as "antisemitic", even going as far as to attacking American free speech laws, prompting the ACLU to step in (even though they don't take a side on the Isreal Palestine confict)
https://www.aclu.org/blog/free-speech/rights-protesters/latest-attack-free-speech-israel-palestine-debate

And they are right, it waters down real antisemitism.

But yeah the information is readily available and a pretty clear example of the the Isreali Zionist Right trying to claim "the holy land". Aka the imperialist warmonger party of Right wight Isreal doing something that is unpopular with the people and Isreal left party of Isreal.

Isreal is a close US ally and the fact that this idea went so mainstream is really annoying.

hera posted...

honestly this is the one area the police usually do their job

the uvalde officers are just gigantic pussies

All I know is the culture police have is almost cult-like and a nationwide us vs them thing, and they're very selective of who they let rise in the ranks to keep it that way. When you saw those police standing around in the hallway for an hour (until a border control agent showed up kicked in the door and killed him immediately) to me it was like the epitome of the standard "go home alive" attitude.

I don't really remember what the police did in other shootings.

Krazy_Kirby posted...

what if the only options for the system are run over a cat/dog, or swerve and hit a car?

Guess no one knows the answer to that other than the engineers. My guess is that it doesn't have any "value of life" metric for hitting and old man or a young man with a longer life to live, and does the action that's less likely to hit anything, but obviously prioritize hitting an inanimate object over a pedestrian.

Even though obviously mental healthcare being a free public service would save lives as well as tighter gun regulations, red flag laws (and those things are insanely hard to get through the government designed to block all of those things, save for some of them that can exist in blue states), this is probably not as dumb as it sounds. Some crazy bastards will still show up at elementary schools ready to take out some kids.

The police aren't willing to do it, we all saw that at Uvalde, I'm pretty sure 90% of school teachers would take that weapon and protect their students with it. At least they won't be sitting ducks. But if this goes wrong, we'll find out quickly. Statistics will tell the whole story.

It's just the gall of the move that pisses people off, who don't want to hear "the answer is more guns", understandably.

No but I see it in like the next 20 years.

Oh I don't do frontend web development full stop. The last time I did any frontend web development was for xFAQs a decade ago and everyone knows how that turned out (pretty awful).

Yeah frontend development sucks. I have to do literally everything, up and to and including the products we sell. We even had me dabble in market research and data analysis (I know)

Judgmenl posted...

I recently had to learn Django (learn? It took like an hour), due to having to change our stack at work, and I was actually quite impressed that a backend framework could integrate so many different things seamlessly and as easily as it did (especially when stacked with something that serves wsgi), historically I've done all of my backend integrations manually as that was how I was taught to do it. Still have coworkers that seem to struggle with why it's used and how to properly use it, then again these coworkers still manage to struggle with docker 5 years into using it.

Thankfully because I control the whole code base I stick to my framework of choice nearly everywhere and would be opposed to integrating any other framework, since I don't see a good reason why I shouldn't, and I think other people will actually appreciate that. But I agree with picking up newer (promising) frameworks designed to streamline the process as a rule of thumb, some people believe in vanilla framework "maturity" but I only see it as more work.

In my canvassing volunteer work our head dev is dead set on a HTML/Javascript static website (independent decision-making on their part), and to that I say have fun writing your own framework instead of learning an established one in this year of 2022.

Keep in mind I am ignorant of most of your experiences and am pretty new to web development in general.

Blazor's biggest downside is that there are no solid UI designer GUIs available for it that I know of, so it's all manual HTML/CSS. I still don't think that would deter me from using it in retrospect, but I would prefer a GUI designer to speed things up. One caveat of it being new. But it's growing fast since I started.

Question though, django uses Python, which is a lot slower than most other languages. Do you have issues with performance a lot, what kind of work does it do?

If I go past 150 LB I skip lunch and I float around that weight regardless of how much exercise I get.

8 years in the industry and I have not seen a single product launch that I consider successful, and I will work my ass off until the day that a product I designed is actually used by people.
I also seek stability in my life and people actively try and sabotage that stability.

Yeah that's the case for most ideas, you would assume that you can start a company and make it but you really can't. It's more of a fantasy and a mistake. You're better off just doing on your free time and investing as a product after when/if it ever gets successful. At that point, you might not have even done any paperwork to be a company, but you are in practice. If it makes you feel any better you are definitely getting paid more than I am at my startup.

One of the guys I work with says he constantly has to fix other people's SQL queries that literally make no sense, like

SELECT * FROM T1, T2, T3, T4, T5 WHERE id = 4;

And they wonder why it returns literal endless garbage. That is after working in that job for 8 years, with the title "Data Scientist".

My code is good though, so the whole code base is good. I know it's good because I've shown other people how to work with it and they said it was pretty sensible/easy. I used Blazor, cut the fat so much out of the stack, keep a very low line count, and I don't have to use Javascript. Javascript is hit or miss, mostly miss.

People are out there making fun of Blazor for being niche and then they use a tech stack with 7 different frameworks. I use 2.

Hot dogs are processed meat that statistically takes off 36 minutes of your life every time you eat one, they're made out of intestines feathers bones and shit, and they don't even taste that good. I'll eat one on occasion but I will never sit around the house eating hot dogs.

You might be like, "who wants to be alive at 90 anyway?" but it's more of a multiplier effect than a subtracting effect if you get what I mean. I've worked in a deli and I've seen what the old people eating bologna look like.
